[Mafia] Escape from Zombie Park Island 3

[TenOfSwords13]

I may be willing to invest in this project; assuming I get off island and am satisfied that this virus can be counteracted.

[PointMaid]

Oh, wonderful! Well, I'll make sure you see everything. I'm sure you'll be satisfied.

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

There's quite a lot to see here! Frankie has done quite the marvelous job bringing all these creatures back to life. It has blown me away considerably seeing those that were once long extinct. Even more wonderful than life in my old island had. If only my wife and daughter were here to see all this...

[Dookie]

There's quite a lot to see here! Frankie has done quite the marvelous job bringing all these creatures back to life. It has blown me away considerably seeing those that were once long extinct. Even more wonderful than life in my old island had. If only my wife and daughter were here to see all this...

"Daughter? I didn't know you had a daughter."

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Of course not, how could you? We did just meet after all. But yes, my daughter, Hyacinth. She used to live with me back on my old island. My wife passed away right after giving birth to her. But when I had to fight my own Victoria, she didn't exactly agree with my methods. I just do what I simply had to do, but she didn't see it that way. Haven't really spoken to her ever since we all left that place.

Shoehorn looks solemn upon talking about his family, of whom he's estranged from or dead. But then he starts to regain his composure.

But that's all in the past now. I'm here now, right where I'm needed. Taking part of an important cause.

[Cassie]

"I'm...sorry to hear about that, Shoehorn..."

It's hard to tell, but Illina's more scared of getting infected than the others for reasons currently unknown.

[PointMaid]

[Expect the first challenge TOMORROW. (US time)]

[Oggy123]

"Sorry to hear about that. And speaking of, i have some good friends too. We used to play together, but they've gone missing. I just hope i can find them at last..."

Bandana Waddle Dee sat down.

[wingedcatgirl]

Hitomi closes her eyes in reflection. "I know the feeling."

[TenOfSwords13]

I never understood familial ties. True, it may be because my kin were not good people, but I don't understand why you'd owe anything to people just because they gave birth to you.

[Cassie]

...

"..."

"...It's not just that. One's family has a lot of influence in shaping who'd someone grow to be. I suppose your poor relationship means you don't want to owe anything to them...but you know yourself that they influenced a lot on what you've become now, right?"

"As someone who'd be glad for some good people that'd care for me right now..." Illina mutters completely out of everyone's earshot.

"Your friends went missing?" She inquired Bandana Dee.

"Huh. On the contrary...I ended up gone missing myself from my own...friends. She continues, her tone startinh to strain like she's got something to hide.

[Risdio51]

Guts sits silently at the mention of families. Best not to mention his.

[PointMaid]

Dr. Frankie makes herself a mimosa and pours in some of her medicinal serum that she keeps in a flask. Then she takes a large sip. All this talk of families... even apart from the thing with her cousin Victoria...

Families. They can shape who you are, yes. In ways you don't expect. But don't let them tell you who you are. Or that you're not good enough to do something, so don't even try. Ever.

[Oggy123]

...

"..."

"Huh. On the contrary...I ended up gone missing myself from my own...friends. She continues, her tone startinh to strain like she's got something to hide.

"Yeah. They're pretty nice people, and i've been searching everywhere for them..."

[Kennifer]

:33< *ac has a lot of furriends back home! she has a really great meowrail named equius and a funny grumpy guy named karkat oh and then there's her furriends she likes to do rolepurrlay with! she doesn't do the dangerous kind though.*

Nepeta thinks for a while about all of her friends... and her shipping chart.

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

... Friends... How quaint. You know... I used to have a few friends back at my old school... I still wonder where they are right now... I...

Tsumugi suddenly gets flashbacks...

Don't want to talk about how I parted with them....but I still wish I could reunite with them... There was this robot .
. And a detective... And... A maid...

Tsumugi keeps on rambling on for a while...

[Cassie]

...that piqued Illina's interest.

"Surprising...what was the school like, Tsumugi?"

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

...that piqued Illina's interest.

"Surprising...what was the school like, Tsumugi?"

It was... Interesting... Apparently, everyone in there was an Ultimate... Something. Usually something about talent, but... Yeah, there was a robot in there, too who was ALSO an Ultimate, so... I dunno.

[Oggy123]

"Must've been one crazy school!"

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

I am curious. Tell me more about your friends, Shoehorn asks Waddle Dee.

[Risdio51]

Friends. Again. Probably shouldn't mention those.

[wingedcatgirl]

:33< *ac has a lot of furriends back home! she has a really great meowrail named equius and a funny grumpy guy named karkat oh and then there's her furriends she likes to do rolepurrlay with! she doesn't do the dangerous kind though.*

Nepeta thinks for a while about all of her friends... and her shipping chart.

"... the dangerous kind of roleplaying?" Hitomi sounds a bit incredulous. "What have I been missing out on, huh."

[Oggy123]

I am curious. Tell me more about your friends, Shoehorn asks Waddle Dee.

"Uuh... Yeah. One of them's round like me, but with a big mouth, blue eyes, and he's pink, and the other's like a pink-haired little girl with wings and a ribbon. They're friendly and nice guys when you get to know them, and we used to play and fight evil together!"

[PointMaid]

You might have noticed Frankie avoiding asking about this when Waddle Dee mentioned his friends earlier. Now she's avoiding his glance and practically choking on a sip of her mimosa.

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Shoehorn looks away from Waddle Dee awkwardly and notices Frankie's choking.

Are you all right?
